CNN just posted the full article. http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/14/politics/cnn-orc-poll-florida-ohio-donald-trump-hillary-clinton/index.html

In both states, Trump's support increases as a result of the likely voter screen, among all registered voters, Clinton edges Trump 45% to 44% in Florida, and in Ohio, Trump tops Clinton 43% to 39% with Johnson at 12%.

mocked disabled people, called hispanics rapist and thugs...Yet, he leads in two important state like Florida and ohio and is within a few points of leading nationally. This nation has finally lost its mind.

I posted a very positive post about Hillary the other night.

Are we censoring polls to only the ones we like now? Isn't that what right wing sites did in 2012? Either ignore or "unskew" polls they didn't like. How did that work out for them?

and literally trying to sink Hillary. This is downright shameful. I guess they really want this d*ckhead to run our country. I am so beyond pissed off at them for what they are doing. Aiding and abetting a criminal to run our country.

However, as a matter of being diligent and prepared, those with money in the markets, or other investments, should probably at least examine what would need to be done with their money if it looks like he's going to win in a month or two.

Like all Republican presidents, he WILL crash the economy and likely sooner rather than later in this case and in a way that will make W's mismanagement look an economic boom.

That's assuming we're not all dead because he's started a nuclear war. A distinct possibility.

I still don't think he's going to win though.

The election is still 2 months away! A lot can happen in a week, as this past week has shown.

I am nervous but you seem ready to give up.

Hillary doesn't even need Ohio and Florida to win.

I agree that the trends are concerning, but the momentum will probably shift back and forth many times between now and November 8.

I won't call you a troll because you have over 700 posts, but your willingness to give up so easily is rather disturbing.

The scary thing is it might not matter.

HRC has some selling to do. You don't drive turnout by scaring people about the other guy. People need to have a sense of what they get in return for your presidency. The convention was strong in that respect, but the campaign has spent the last weeks overly focused on Trump's negatives, culminating with the basket gaffe. If she wants to roll in the mud with Donald until November nothing would please him more.

This is a very close, competitive race that's there for either side to win. Let's make sure it's us that wins.

And a Hillary supporter since she became a politician. But, it is clear that she is not a good campaigner. I'll probably get banned for that, as this site is very authoritarian in their messag and a Hillary supporter since she became a politician. But, it is clear that she is not a good campaigner. I'll probably get banned for that, as this site is very authoritarian in their methods. But, she blew what was a very positive convention by retreating into the shadow and allowing the media in the Republican to paint the picture of the campaign.

I do believe she'll still win the election. But, it is going to be a lot closer than it needed to be and that is going to cost the Democrats a chance at the house and likely at the Senate.
